Question:
DM8550038 Demco 21K Hello, I purchased this hitch from yall about three years ago for my 2017 F250 short bed. Im trading the truck in for a F350 with 8foot long bed. Will this slider hitch work with an 8foot bed? Both trucks have factory puck mounts.

Hey Danny,
Appreciate the purchase and yes, you can use the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider # DM8550038 in an F-350 long bed with the puck system.
The puck spacing is the same so the hitch will drop in the pucks in the long bed the same way you've used it in your short bed truck.
